Demon King, Don’t Run Away Chapter 45: Welcome in person
[Bayi Chinese website www.zwdu8.me] Poof—
No, no, it’s so shameful. How could I say such shameful things.
I was thinking that at this point in time, as a male protagonist, I should say something cool, but I accidentally said something so mean.
This feeling of shame was like reading out the non-mainstream secondary school diary of his junior high school in front of his college classmates. Yang Yu couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
Suppressing the confusion in his heart and trying not to express his embarrassment in words, Yang Yu waited for Bai Jin's answer. However, Bai Jin held the staff and sat motionless on the chair.
Big sister, can you please say something? If you don't say anything, I will be the only one embarrassed in the room.
"Can accompanying you on your adventure be regarded as the reward I need to pay?"
Bai Jin suddenly spoke, making Yang Yu overjoyed.
"You can understand it this way, don't worry, I will try my best to ensure your safety, after all, you are my partner."
"Okay." Bai Jin stood up shakingly, stretched out his hand and held Yang Yu tightly, "I hope you won't break your promise."
Compared with Yang Yu's broad palms, Bai Jin's hands are very small. Perhaps due to long-term illness, they are terrifyingly slender, completely skinny and very white. But it was warm and had a weak pulse, as if she was truly alive.
Bai Jin smiled, but this time her smile was different from before, a little more from the inside out, it was a sincere, human smile.
"Hey, hey, do you want to go on an adventure? I'm really looking forward to seeing what kind of creatures and people I will meet along the way. There must be many suitable for making potions, and they can also be used as experiments for my curse magic. Product.”
It really hasn’t changed at all.
To deal with Bai Jin, Yang Yu talked about the ins and outs of the task. Not through the formal channels of the auction house, but directly by sneaking into the research institute to get what they needed. Bai Jin was a little surprised and a little conflicted, but when he heard that the Yinlan Chamber of Commerce was likely to collude with other countries, he felt relieved. Relieved.
You, a curse mage, actually have a sense of justice better than me. Yang Yu directly said that you are really not suitable to be a curse mage.
"The above is the entire content of our mission. There are certain risks, so they asked us to temporarily hide in other cities for a while after completing the mission. At that time, our journey will officially begin. Bring everything you need to bring. , we will start taking action this weekend. Understand?
“I didn’t quite understand something just now. In order to successfully complete the task and get the medicine, could you please tell me the task requirements and procedures from the beginning...”
"It's not impossible. If you really can't remember it, just follow me quietly..."
"Don't worry, I'm just in case, checking to see if I missed anything."
......
Time passed bit by bit, and the day of action finally arrived.
When he came to the Adventurer's Guild, Yang Yu contacted Terra and selected the skills he wanted from the list of skill scrolls that Terra brought.
I thought that the Giant Umbrella Chamber of Commerce was just a small chamber of commerce and could not produce any particularly good skill scrolls, but it turned out that it had many extremely practical skills, making Yang Yu want to choose a few more.
After weighing the pros and cons many times, Yang Yu made a choice, "I choose these two."
The name of the first skill is [Iron Wall]. After being turned on, the damage taken will be reduced by 20% within 20 seconds.
The name of the second skill is [Steel Body]. After it is turned on, it will not only increase double resistance by 10% within 10 seconds, but also increase the maximum blood volume by 20%.
With these two skills, Yang Yu's frankness can be greatly increased, and he can finally look a little defensive.
In the past, his main focus was endurance and his secondary focus was speed. He was obviously a defensive player, but he was forced to become a meat-suited assassin. However, a tank that relies on evasion to block damage can also be considered a tank.
Unfortunately, Yang Yu doesn't know how long this state can last.
This game has just begun, and the monsters he comes into contact with are still very basic. There are no particularly abnormal monsters yet. He can easily deal with them with speed alone. But by the middle and late stages of the game, who knows what monsters will be waiting for him.
He did not have the confidence to dodge the dragon's large-scale scorching breath; when encountering a BOSS that could restrain or significantly reduce his speed, if his speed was too high and other attributes were too low, he would be completely defeated.
Therefore, we still have to unswervingly follow the line of defense against war.
Yang Yu chose two skills, and he chose them so naturally that Terra was a little helpless, "I can only choose one skill."
"Don't worry, I will definitely be able to complete the task better than you think. When the time comes, you will definitely give me a skill scroll."
Yang Yu smiled meaningfully, and Terra felt more and more that the young man in front of her was not simple.
Skill scrolls of rare skills are valuable, and even the Giant Umbrella Chamber of Commerce will not easily give out two as rewards. However, if he can exceed the task, the Chamber of Commerce will definitely not be stingy and take the opportunity to win over him.
Is it possible that he alone has some secret information about the Yinlan Chamber of Commerce that no one knows about?
Haha - how is this possible... Even the most outstanding young people cannot easily investigate things that the Giant Umbrella Chamber of Commerce cannot investigate.
Secretly rejecting his inner thoughts, Terra smiled and said: "If you can really complete the task better than you imagined, I'll give you one. Don't forget the delivery place of the things. When you get there, It’s best to check and remember the route in case you get lost.”
"Everything will go well."
Yang Yu waved his hand, took Bai Jin into the carriage, and left Rhodes City.
The location of this operation is Chuanyang City, which takes less than half a day from Rhodes Town where the Adventurer's Guild is located.
The Adventurer's Guild also often receives requests from Chuanyang City, whether it's chores to find various things or temporary tasks to help maintain law and order in the city.
Bai Jin has taken on such tasks many times, is quite familiar with the city, and can be used as a guide.
The sun was rising at noon. After paying the late fee, they passed through the checkpoint and arrived in the city of Chuanyang. The bustling streets were bustling with traffic and people coming and going. Shops of all sizes were lined up neatly in the streets, which was very lively.
After parking the carriage and taking a casual look at the place where the task was handed over, Yang Yu followed Bai Jin to an unknown alley, where a man wearing an orange-red mask had been waiting for him for a long time.
His hair is pale, his fingers are dry, and his long white beard is looming behind the mask.
"Is there no one left in their chamber of commerce?"
Yang Yu whispered, surprised that such an old man came to meet them.
"I heard everything you just said." The old man hunched his shoulders, and there was no emotion or joy in his voice. He just asked lightly: "Why do you say that?"
There was nothing he could do after being heard. Yang Yu smiled. He wanted to say, why do they disrespect the old and the young so much that they sent you, an old man, to do the work yourself, but he opened the panel and took a look.
Oh, shit, the president of the Chamber of Commerce actually went out to greet him in person!
As soon as they met, he said that there was no one in the other people's chamber of commerce, and mocked that the other person's chamber of commerce was small, and he would definitely be dragged out by them, and he would not be able to take care of himself.
There is no other way, Yang Yu can only bite the bullet and prevaricate with a half-smile, "It's not interesting, I just didn't expect that the president of the Giant Umbrella Chamber of Commerce would actually come out to greet you in person."
